“From 3 to 5 October I had the pleasure of spending 3 days in Hungary with a group of tourists from Germany. In more than 23 years of travelling (and not only in Europe) I have only once met a guide with such a high level of professionalism as Igor Goldengur. Besides excellent speech and great intelligence, he has a quality that is never superfluous in a guide — a sense of humour.”

“If you want to discover, get to know and fall in love with Budapest, this is the place for you. From the very first minutes Igor won the hearts of all 55 of us. Excellent presentation — engaging, touching, dynamic. His kindness, patience, sense of humour and tact made our three-day trip truly unforgettable. 10 points out of five!”

Going to Budapest, I came across Igor's site and immediately understood that this person can offer what our company needs! I liked that Igor answered my application within half an hour. Then my confidence in the choice was confirmed by the plan that Igor proposed for us. And having learned about discounts and the organization of transfer, I had no doubt - this is the version of the wonderful vacation we need. Igor, thank you so much for your work that you do with your team, for the reverent attitude to tourists, for organization and punctuality, for a competent story about the country and its capital ... For the love of Budapest that you have sown in our hearts. We wish you and your team prosperity, responsive tourists!

Thanks to you, Igor, we learned a lot of information about the ancient culture and modern features of the country, visited many other wonderful places in Hungary. With the help of your professional tips, our trip was carefully and reasonably planned. And thanks to a clear organization, from the first to the last day we had an incredible amount of time, even visited places that were not planned by the program. We got comprehensive answers to all the questions we asked, even if not always on the topic.

We were traveling together a lot, but it was our first time when we booked a tour guide. Igor is a punctual, attentive, very charming person. In addition to telling about the history of Hungary, about prominent personalities, about interesting monuments and buildings that carry over the period in question, Igor answered everyday questions of interest to us, guided Budapest, gave information about transport, cultural places where and inexpensive to eat. All this had to be in favor during his stay in Budapest, for which many thanks to him. I can only recommend him to everyone.
